Solution

The correct options are
A

the material of the solid


B

the material of the liquid


due to adhesive forces, a liquid may rise up in a capillary tube or fall down, depending upon the contact angle between them.
So, it is a type of materials in contact and this decides the contact angle.
Hence it is a property of materials in contact i.e., solid & liquid
